Painted Cabinets

Before/After· distressing· DIY· How to· paint· Painted cabinets· Tutorial

Painted cabinets are rich and beautifully custom looking, but have you ever considered painting them yourself? The idea scared me to death. I didn’t want to screw them up and if I did, I knew I’d never hear the end of it from the spouse! And I certainly was not interested in the whole stripping, sanding, priming, painting process. My mind was set on dark painted cabinets though. So what could I do? All the cabinetry in our home is exactly the same, much like many modern day, cookie-cutter ... Read More about Painted Cabinets

Are You Searching for Perfect or Possible?

We aren’t talking about the search for a perfect mate. Yah, I hear your, “Awww, come-on!”. Relationships are not my expertise, nor do I don’t dare give advice on it, but as far as those go, one thing I do know is that PERFECTION does not exist, at least not here on Earth. The same can be said with your home and decorating. So many walls stay boring builder white and empty because the owner simply can’t decide on a vision for the space or because they are looking for the perfect piece of ...

Halloween Treat Cones are a fun way to hand out sweets to all the little ghosts and goblins! They are so simple to make! Start with a selection of 12 x 12” scrapbook paper. All you will need is scrapbook paper, a pen, scissors, clear tape, glue, and some ribbon. On a large sheet of cardstock or plain paper, draw a large circle and divide it into thirds. I used the lid of a pot to trace around. A dinner plate would work also. Next, cut out the circle and along the lines marking ... Read More about Halloween Treat Cones

Seek a Dining Room Table ~ Find an Awesome Deal

Dining Room· Pottery Barn· Restoration Hardware· Thrifty finds

This is the third home we’ve lived and I’ve yet to own a dining room table. Every dining room has either sat empty or became a playroom. Purchasing a table just has never been a priority, and financially, not a possibility. If my husband had his way, there’d be a pool table in the middle of the dining room. My best friend actually has a gorgeous, custom dining table that converts into a full size pool table! You’d never know it. But sadly, for my husband, our dining room just isn’t large ...

The Girls Bathroom ~ Adding Bead Board

bead board· decorating· design· DIY· How to· remodel

Any day that involves pressing a trigger is a fun day in my book! I love my nail gun! It makes most DIY projects 1000 times faster and easier, especially if you want to accomplish a project in just a weekend. And if you are anything like me, you have about 10+ projects that need to be done, like yesterday. Our daughters share a bathroom and after living in this home for three years, we still had never decorated it. Now this bathroom is long! 18 stinkin’ feet long! Walking to the bathtub felt ...
